What Betahistine Dihydrochloride Is and How We Compound It for Boerne
In one line: betahistine is an oral medicine that behaves a little like histamine. It's a normal prescription in parts of Europe and Canada, mostly for Meniere's disease. Here a pharmacy has to compound it for the individual patient. Patients in Boerne, Comfort and the rest of San Antonio Metro send orders to us the same way. Close to Kendall County Courthouse and Jail or along Interstate 10 and U.S. Route 87, delivery costs nothing.
We check the order first. The directions, the salt form, all of it. No current prescription, no refill. Not sure about something? Call us at 972-214-0350 and we'll walk you through it.

Is a Betahistine Capsule Available in Boerne?
A chain pharmacy in Boerne won't have it. Wholesalers carry no US betahistine product, because there isn't one. Compounding makes an individual preparation possible. Hand us the prescription and the rest happens in Plano: we compound it, then deliver it to Boerne or set it aside for pickup. Only with a prescription, and only if your prescriber thinks it fits.
Is Nasal Spray Betahistine Available in Boerne?
Yes. We can prepare betahistine as a nasal spray with a strength of 80 mg/mL. Quantity options are 3 mL, 6 mL, 12 mL and 18 mL, or as your prescription states. The spray is made only on a valid prescription, and we deliver it free to any Texas address.
What Prescribers Use Betahistine For
The usual reasons are Meniere's disease and vertigo that starts in the inner ear, at times with tinnitus or a full feeling in the ear. We can't tell you what it'll do for you. Your prescriber is the one to ask. Results differ from trial to trial, so the evidence is weak. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.

Betahistine Side Effects
If you have asthma, ulcers or pheochromocytoma, check with your prescriber first. Antihistamines and MAO inhibitors can interact.
Rash and itching come up less often. Foreign labeling names stomach upset, nausea and headaches most.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you deliver compounded betahistine to Boerne?
We do, at no charge, to every address in Boerne. Pickup at 811 E Plano Pkwy Ste 116 in Plano is the alternative.
Is betahistine 16 mg available?
It is. Compounded betahistine 8 mg, 16 mg and 24 mg capsules are available when a prescriber orders them, and the prescriber picks the strength. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Why can't you get betahistine in the US?
An earlier approval was pulled over doubts about the efficacy evidence, and no manufacturer has filed again. It is not banned, which leaves compounding for one patient on a prescriber's order.
What is betahistine?
It is a histamine-related medicine used abroad, mainly for Meniere's disease. In the US we prepare it as a compounded capsule on a prescriber's order for one named patient.
What do prescribers use betahistine for?
Prescribers think of it chiefly for Meniere's disease and vertigo of inner-ear origin, and some add tinnitus or ear fullness to that list. Findings vary between studies, so the prescriber makes the call. Individual results vary. Consult your provider.
Can my Boerne prescriber send a betahistine prescription to UnityRX?
Any licensed prescriber can. E-prescribe to UnityRX, fax 972-214-0351, or phone 972-214-0350; the online form handles transfers.
Is betahistine available in the United States?
Betahistine is not FDA-approved and is not sold commercially in the United States. In Texas it is available only as a compounded prescription prepared for one patient, and only a licensed prescriber can decide whether it is appropriate. Nothing is on retail shelves, but a prescriber can still order a compounded version for you.
Can I buy betahistine over the counter?
No over-the-counter version exists. Only a prescription filled by a compounding pharmacy will do.
What form does compounded betahistine come in?
Capsules made for one patient. Overseas products can't be dispensed here, and the prescriber sets the form and directions.

What are the side effects of betahistine?
